On Sunday February 7th Kevin Staut, Haras des Coudrettes and the team of Jumpfive will bring tribute to Silvana*HDC. "Our princes will retire from the sport just before the start of the Grand Prix," writes the team of Haras des Coudrettes. "Silvana is in a perfect shape and as a tribute of gratitude we want to offer her the retirement she deserves."
In 2012 Silvana took home the Grand Prix victory in Bordeaux, as a first big win for Haras des Coudrettes. Therefor the choice for Bordeaux was inevitable. "Silvana will continue her days at the property of Haras des Coudrettes."

The French pair collected many international victories in the past years. Just to some up: The Grand Prix of Bordeaux in 2012, the CSI5* GP in Paris in 2013, the LGCT in Paris and CSI5* GP in 's Hertogenbosch in 2014.
